We've made it easier for you to stay in touch with friends, family and colleagues when you fly. Connect to our onboard Wi-Fi, make a call on your mobile or use our in-seat phone. Check which communication services are on your flight with See what's on your flight.

Wi-Fi in the sky

It’s free to blog, post or tweet from your seat on all of our A380s and most Boeing 777 aircraft. Enjoy 10MB of free data (that’s enough to search, send emails and update Facebook). You can also pay just USD 1 to use up to 500MB, meaning you can stay connected throughout your flight.* Due to regulations, we can’t always offer communications services over every country. Our service providers are working with regulators to extend coverage. We can’t guarantee these services on all flights or that they will be fault-free. Emirates liability is limited accordingly.

In-seat phone, SMS and email

Use the in-seat satellite phone to stay in touch with home or your office, or use it to call other people on your flight. You can also send messages using our onscreen SMS and email services.

Mobile phone and data roaming

Make calls on your mobile just as you would when you’re on the ground** To make calls or use data on your mobile, your mobile phone or global roaming provider must have a roaming agreement with OnAir or Aeromobile, our service providers. You’ll be charged by your service provider in line with international roaming rates. You can use your mobile on over 300 flights a day, including all of our A380 flights. You can also connect to the internet using our Wi-Fi services on all A380s and most Boeing 777s.

Open Skies

Pick up your copy of Open Skies from your seat pocket and get inspired by a great inflight read. Our award-winning monthly magazine is your guide to what’s happening in the world right now.
